Cyber Security in the Cellular World
The Problem
Cyber Security is becoming more and more relevant with all of the attacks seen internally from persons in the U.S. as well as those attackers from outside the U.S. looking to disrupt our services and economy.
With the introduction of LTE (4G) more and more opportunity exists to utilize this flexible technology as long as we can resolve the barriers to entry as well as the barriers to run the systems securely and economically.
Using a cost effective and simple method to implement a Private Network is the Answer!

China/Russia Cyber Attacks are Targeting U.S. Infrastructure
Using a cost effective and simple method to implement a Private Network is the Answer!
Bloomberg: “UglyGorilla Hack of U.S. Utility Exposes CyberWar Threat”“He sought access to systems that regulate the flow of natural gas. He cruised channels where keystrokes could cut off a city’s heat, or make a pipeline explode.”
“This is as big a national security threat as I have ever seen in the history of this country that we are not prepared for,” said Representative Mike Rogers, a Michigan Republican
UglyGorilla’s surveillance sortie was one of dozens conducted on natural gas pipelines and electric utilities by People’s Liberation Army Unit 61398 over at least 14 months in 2012 and 2013, according to documents obtained by Bloomberg News
According to the DHS presentation and slides, the unit stole lists of field sites, such as block valve stations and compressors, that could be manipulated remotely, as well as SCADA log-on and user manuals for servers.
Already, the energy industry was the sixth-most targeted sector worldwide last year. It was the top target in the U.S., accounting for 59 percent of the 256 attacks recorded last year by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Almost all the specifics of the incidents are kept quiet to prevent damage to the companies victimized.

COST
TAKE TO LONG
• Customers spend $1000’s on dedicated equipment just to follow Carrier termination rules
• Customer then spends 10,000’s on teams to engineer and maintain a Private Network
• Overages from applications, miss-use of the network, or hackers driving up data usage
• Productivity loss is the hidden gem when businesses provide mobile access or smartphones
• Consultants design complex networks making them hard to use and maintain
• Vendors are not standard on termination techniques resulting in complexity and delays
• Each solution is unique, driving up cost to the end customer making them tough to maintain
• Many organizations do not have the technical expertise within IP and Wireless technology
• Carriers take 4-6 weeks to prepare their part of the overall solution
• IT Engineering firms take add another 1-4 months to plan and implement an overall solution
• Complete solutions range from 3-6 months to cover the solution with integration & testing
• Companies are making short term decisions resulting in bad security plans to meet deadlines

• Carriers provide part of the solution leaving the Customer to design the transport/termination
• Partial solutions drive many SMB size customers to abandon projects due to cost and/or size
• Resulting support costs are high as the solution in many cases will be managed by a 3rd party
• Carrier’s will often encourage public IP addresses as it is the quickest path to implementation
• Many Modem vendors will provide a form of Security at the Modem
• Unfortunately this method does a great job for the data plane but exposes the control plane
• This results in exposure of the device and therefore the network driving up security exposure
• This also exposes customers to higher costs due to malicious pinging driving up data usage
• Terminate the Carrier IPsec tunnel reducing cost and improving overall flexibility options
• Reduce data usage costs from malicious pinging and leaves the customer exposed to hackers
• Provides a strong partner for organizations acting as an extension of their IT group
• Reliable, Repeatable and Sustainable resulting in a High Value Private Networking Solution

• Cloud Solutions terminate Carrier APN’s removing the need for dedicated routers reducing CAPEX
• Pre-engineered so that 90+% of the overall solution is re-useable
• Bring a full toolkit of bandwidth management techniques reducing and/or eliminating overages resulting in higher customer satisfaction
• Cloud Solutions can design the network, maintain the network, and can act as an extension of the IT team as appropriate
• Support flexible terminations to cloud vendors and customer premise
• Cloud Solutions can support multi-carrier implementations into a single delivery vehicle
• Customer deployments are reduced to weeks versus 2-6 months with the higher priced IT engineering firms
• Cloud vendors can deliver a complete solution fully tested and then handed over to the customer ready to roll!
• Customers are afforded the proper time to make good decisions base on their security needs
